Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model EMB-500 Airplanes
This AD applies to Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model EMB-500 airplanes, serial numbers 50000005 thru 50000105, certificated in any category.
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:
Unless already done, within 600 hours time-in-service (TIS) after February 9, 2011 (the effective date of this AD) or within 12 months after February 9, 2011 (the effective date of this AD), whichever comes first, install clamps and protection sleeves to harness W101 within the cockpit area and rework structures to eliminate the fretting spots of the harness with the main door locking mechanism and with the oxygen tube. Do the installation following Empresa Brasileira de Aeronáutica S.A. (EMBRAER) Service Bulletin No. SB 500-24-0002, dated March 8, 2010.
Note: This AD differs from the MCAI and/or service information as follows: No differences.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
